WARNING
Explanation of Safety Messages
Precautionary statements (“DANGER,” “WARNING,”
and “CAUTION”), followed by specific instructions,
are found in this manual and on machine decals. These
precautions are intended for the personal safety of the
operator, user, servicer, and those maintaining the
machine.
Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT”
and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.
IMPORTANT: The word “IMPORTANT” is used
to inform the reader of specific procedures where
minor machine damage will occur if the procedure
is not followed.
NOTE: The word “NOTE” is used to communicate
installation, operation, maintenance or servicing
information that is important but not hazard
related.
Important Safety Instructions
1. Read all instructions before using the washer.
2. Install the washer according the
INSTALLATION instructions. Refer to the
GROUNDING instructions in the
INSTALLATION manual for the proper
grounding of the washer. All connections for
water, drain, electrical power and grounding must
comply with local codes and be made by licensed
personnel when required. It is recommended that
the machine be installed by qualified technicians.
3. Do not install or store the washer where it will be
exposed to water and/or weather.
4. To prevent fire and explosion, keep the area
around machine free from flammable and
combustible products. Do not add the following
substances or textiles containing traces of the
following substances to the wash water: gasoline,
kerosene, waxes, cooking oils, vegetable oils,
machine oils, dry-cleaning solvents, flammable
chemicals, thinners, or other flammable or
explosive substances. These substances give off
vapors that could ignite, explode or cause the
fabric to catch fire by itself.
5. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be
produced in a hot water system that has not been
used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS
IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not
been used for such a period, before using a
washing machine or combination washer-dryer,
turn on all hot water faucets and let the water
flow from each for several minutes. This will
release any accumulated hydrogen gas. The gas
is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame
during this time.
6. To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire, DO
NOT use an extension cord or an adapter to
connect the washer to the electrical power
source.
Safety Information
7. Do not allow children to play on or in the washer.
Close supervision of children is necessary when
the washer is used near children. This appliance
is not intended for use by young children or
infirm persons without supervision. Young
children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance. This is a safety
rule for all appliances.
8. DO NOT reach and/or climb into the tub or onto
the washer, ESPECIALLY if the wash drum is
moving. This is an imminently hazardous
situation that, if not avoided, will cause severe
personal injury or death.
9. Never operate the washer with any guards, panels
and/or parts removed or broken. DO NOT bypass
any safety devices or tamper with the controls.
10. Use washer only for its intended purpose,
washing textiles. Never wash machine parts or
automotive parts in the machine. This could
result in serious damage to the basket or tub.
11. Use only low-sudsing, no-foaming types of
commercial detergent. Be aware that hazardous
chemicals may be present. Wear hand and eye
protection when adding detergents and
chemicals. Always read and follow
manufacturer’s instructions on packages of
laundry and cleaning aids. Heed all warnings or
precautions. To reduce the risk of poisoning or
chemical burns, keep them out of the reach of
children at all times (preferably in a locked
cabinet).
12. Do not use fabric softeners or products to
eliminate static unless recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
13. Always follow the fabric care instructions
supplied by the textile manufacturer.
14. Loading door MUST BE CLOSED any time the
washer is to fill, tumble or spin. DO NOT bypass
the loading door switch by permitting the washer
to operate with the loading door open. Do not
attempt to open the door until the washer has
drained and all moving parts have stopped.
15. Be aware that hot water is used to flush the
supply dispenser. Avoid opening the dispenser lid
while the machine is running.
16. Do not attach anything to the supply dispenser’s
nozzles, if applicable. The air gap must be
maintained.
18. Be sure water connections have a shut-off valve
and that fill hose connections are tight. CLOSE
the shut-off valves at the end of each wash day.
19. Keep washer in good condition. Bumping or
dropping the washer can damage safety features.
If this occurs, have washer checked by a
qualified service person.
20. DANGER: Before inspecting or servicing
machine, power supply must be turned OFF. The
servicer needs to wait for at least 3 minutes after
turning the power OFF and needs to check for
residual voltage with a voltage meter. The
inverter capacitor or EMC filter remains charged
with high voltage for some time after powering
OFF. This is an imminently hazardous situation
that, if not avoided, will cause severe personal
injury or death.
21. Do not repair or replace any part of the washer, or
attempt any servicing unless specifically
recommended in the user-maintenance
instructions or in published user-repair
instructions that the user understands and has the
skills to carry out. ALWAYS disconnect the
washer from electrical, power and water supplies
before attempting any service.
22. Disconnect the power cord by grasping the plug,
not the cord. Replace worn power cords and/or
loose plugs. If the supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by a special cord or assembly
available from the service agent.
23. Before the washer is removed from service or
discarded, remove the door to the washing
compartment.
24. Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this
washer according to the manufacturer’s
instructions may result in conditions which can
produce bodily injury and/or property damage.

WARNING
Machine Foundation Requirements
A 6 inch (153 mm) (for 35 and 60 2-speed, L-speed
and M-speed models) or a 12 inch (305 mm) (for all
other models) thickness of 3500 psi reinforced
concrete foundation is absolutely necessary because of
the high extract speed and the G-forces exerted.
When designing floors or foundations, refer to Tab le 2
for Floor Load Data for all model sizes. If the
foundation requirements have been met, proceed to
Mounting Bolt Installation Requirements section.
NOTE: Do not mount on wooden floors, above
ground level, or over basements. Installation must
be “slab on grade” or equal.
Thoroughness of detail must be stressed with all
foundation work to ensure a stable unit installation,
eliminating possibilities of excessive vibration during
extract.
For new foundations a bolt-locator fixture or rebar
frame is available and a preferred option. This rigid
welded assembly made of reinforcing rod and
mounting bolts is designed to be embedded in
concrete. Refer to Figure 7.
The washer-extractor must be anchored to a smooth
level surface so that the entire base of the machine is
supported and rests on the mounting surface. (Do not
support the washer-extractor on only four points.)
Make sure to grout machine. Refer to Figure 6 and
Figure 7.
